My thoughts on this: so so

So Great and so AWESOME!!!!

Wow, I didn‘t expect much but this was really nice. 

Anyone else getting a bit of a modern Saint vibe? Liked it more than I expected.

I love the music. I’m not sold on Dave Roberts’ voice. It’s great that Rex is back to writing and recording this style of hard rock again!

I wasn't sure what to expect either but these tunes are crankin'.  It's nothing particularly original, just very well-done and a great addition to their catalog.  I'm fine with the new singer.

Same here!

I wish the mix was a little better. But overall, pretty good.

Kinda strange not hearing Scott's vocals on top of it all... but it's good hair metal and the singer suits the style.

The singer reminds me of the current singers in Saint and Accept with a slight Dio vibe. Hopefully this will eventually be a full album. I like the music.

I haven't listened to the songs yet, but I did get the download from Amazon last night.  If the new singer has a Dio vibe, then I look forward to what they do in the future.  Rex spent a lot of time with Scott trying to emulate Ratt.  It will be cool to see what he does with someone different at the mic.  He could end up taking his playing and writing to a different level just because of the change.  Look at how different the debut King James was to Whitecross with Rex.  This might be the change that is needed to keep the music and ministry of Whitecross to continue for several years.  I am definitely willing to give this a fair shakedown.

I see what you did there. 

I couldn't expect less of these songs, since I heard the Fierce Heart new album. Rex is on fire there.

Really digging the music, but something does seem "off" in the mix.  I can't say that I'm a huge fan of the vocalist, but I'm certainly not hating it.

I listened to these songs this morning.  After hearing these, I am once again excited over what Whitecross is doing.  For the first time in a long time that I am excited over what Rex Carroll is actually doing!

Here's hoping for a full length new album!

I like his work with Whitecross and King James except for the Fall. I had The Fall and sold it. I had Rex Carroll Sessions and Rex Carroll Band and didn't care for those albums. I don't like The Bleed at all.  I will eventually check out Fierce Heart - they are on my radar.

I wish someone would reissue Eden Fan the Flame to make it more affordable. 

I much prefer the Rex Carroll version of Whitecross, especially the first 3 albums. I have the 3 non-Rex Carroll albums. I had One More Encore Compilation and sold it. 

The Bands he was involved in were:

Fierce Heart
Whitecross
King James
Rex Carroll Session
Rex Carroll Band
The Bleed
Eden Fan the Flame

Any other bands he wa sin I can check out?

I'm loving the new EP.

The new singer is growing on me fast.

The old guitarist is sounding better than ever.

Not a fan of the Whitecross 2.0 vocalist ...I tried to like the  vocals, but no go , IMO it doesn't fit the music .......

Got the link, thanks!

Are they going to release more, or is 3 songs all we get?

Is this like a 3 song EP or something?

The singer sounds a lot like the new singer for Saint
